The media's favorite war protester Cindy Seehan was today convicted of trespassing at of all places the U.N. in New York City. Read about it at
Fox News. I can't say I remember that she had been arrested for that since she gets sooooo much coverage for the many dumb things that she does. She was fined $95 and if she manages to get arrested again in the next six months would have some other form of a penalty against her. I guess we will see if she get cuffed again, wasting the time of law enforcement and the courts.
Of course for her in the media, it is noble to get arrested for her "cause". Not the case for Right to Life activists when they get arrested and charged with breaking Rico "laws". If you don't know what Rico laws are, they were designed to get mobsters jailed. But they were also used on Right to Lifers to stop the opposition to abortion. Had some lefty group been jailed for rico the media would have been all over it. Not in this case though.
Oh well, the looply media misses the real story. That is not new news.
